Aside from dumb luck, knowing when historically major naval battles were fought, and where, will help. I talked to a friend of mine last night, who said he'd sunk his first battleship in Sh4. He'd left Pearl heading over towards Japan when he got radio message traffic saying "The Battle of the Coral Sea is underway, all nearby patrol units should assist". He figured he'd find lots of capital ships there, so he reloaded the autosave from port and headed down to the South Pacific instead. Sure enough, he encountered a Japanese task force with lots of capital ships in it.
